I’m a huge Linux supporter. I maintain an infrastructure of thousands of Linux servers, don’t have a single Windows install. My work laptop runs Linux, the only one in the company not on Windows or OS X. I have a mini-PC proxmox setup running a bunch of VMs for different services like pihole, FoundryVTT, NVR, etc. I use Linux for everything except my gaming PC.
And even I find the Linux fanboys absolutely intolerable. Go ask a question in @tech and any possibility of an actual helpful answer is drowned by hundreds of “Install Linux” comments that are all up voted to the top. The entirety of some of the most popular communities are completely worthless because of zealots like them.
Same, except with sports teams, communist subs, furry content, and “rule” memes.
Also the Prigozhin news yesterday occupying every third post because there are multiple posts on multiple communities across every instance highlights one of the big drawbacks to aggregation imo.
I’m a “best tool for the job” kinda person, and since only a few of the games I play work on Linux, my gaming PC will stay on Win10 til I’m forced to upgrade. We can all pretend that Linux comes anywhere close to the ease of use and compatibility of Windows or OS X, but it doesn’t. I wouldn’t be caught dead using anything Microsoft in a production capacity, or using Linux or OS X for gaming. Linux support for games has come a really long way, but I’m not going to hamstring myself just on principle, especially one as ridiculous as OS loyalty.
I keep blocking any communities mentioning Linux on my feed, yet it still never stops.

Maybe you should try installing Linux on your gaming PC - then you’ll become a true believer.
You’ll have to leave Lemmy altogether for that, I’m afraid. A lot of Linux True Believers here.

It is unstoppable :)
Microsoft person?
I’m not an anything person. If anything, I’m a “please don’t show me any OS related content in my feed at all” person.
I bet your one of these type people.
